It's just a joke I wasn't trying to tell
What the hell
I do not know what I am for
I wasn't really keeping score
It wasn't really a game
Flowers don't grow in an organized way
Why should I
A bowl of sugar and some flower stems
Their spikes growing
I wanted to come from a painting
An abstraction
Calling up time and waiting on the line
Till I finally say I quit baby
It's just a joke I wasn't trying to tell
What the hell
I still don't know what I am for
I wasn't really keeping score
It wasn't really a game
Flowers don't grow in an organized way
Why should I
